It's been a bit since I asked this question but have you used nostr in a way that would get you censored on other platforms?
Discussion
Yes, I have used Nostr to talk about Nostr and that's prohibited on X 😂
yes
but honestly it was way worse on Twitter when Twitter Safety Dep. was still alive 21/22 before Elon fired them all
Facebook/Insta are an absolute joke tho, v ridiculous censoring still (i assume at least, not on there anymore)
Yep, I often use the word retarded.
Other than that, I thing I would get pretty much shadow banned, more than censored.
I like to think we've taken retarded and gay back
Yes
Probably the only noticeable behavior change I think I've had on Nostr that differs from twitter is the fact that I'm generally nicer here, and I say "retarded" more often 😂
However, I was 100% shadow banned on Twitter for talking bad about the vax. I was averaging ~3k new followers per month with steady growth up from 500 per month for a period of almost 2 years without break. Then i got warned about a single post, where i cited factual information on vax deaths, and my follower count on Twitter came to a *dead* stop. It sat at 67k for the next 5 months I think before it sloooowly started to trickle higher again.
Now on Nostr, obviously this is all irrelevant, however I also haven't really discussed much on Nostr in regards to the vaccine (except for right now, lol), but I don't think it's because I'm censoring myself, just that there's not much new to add to the discussion about a 100% ineffective vax that's doing incredible amounts of harm to people. (ie. it's no longer news) 🤔
This makes sense re: vax stuff. I dunno, maybe you need to channel your inner Larken Rose on nostr and get real spicy 😂
Perhaps I'm hoping to see more users who *need* nostr push the boundaries here. It's mostly us first-world bitcoiner types who are saying and doing rather wholesome things and having fun. Not a bad use of the protocol but I'd like to see this thing being used as freedom tech.
"It's no longer news"... i'd love to agree with you.. Yes, we all know that what they called a so-called vaccine not only was ineffective besides beeing harmful. But as we say in french, "when the wine is bottled, one has to drink it". And new vax bottles are ready to go to market.
The good news is that Nostr is here, the tricky point beeing to incentivize Twittos to move in here with us. And i talk about people like me who are not fond of BC and used to this culture. But l'm rather confident ^^
I think most people don't engage differently here its just the benefit of not being shadowbanned for thinking differently. Many honest non scammy Bitcoiners have been shadowbanned for no reason.
